Singer Tom Grennan has paid tribute to Amber Sheehy after the eight-year-old died due to a brain tumour.
Amber died on Saturday, January 14, just one day before her ninth birthday, after being diagnosed with a medulloblastoma brain tumour at the age of five.
Grennan posted on Twitter to say: "My little superstar Amber I wish I wasn’t writing this, your passing the night before your ninth birthday has crushed me.
"I know you will be watching and singing at every gig I do and I’ll carry your spirit & smile with me forever.
"Love to the family, f**k you cancer. RIP Amber."
